From 37720569cc89205c23011d6b52f8c63ea2057c3d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2015 19:52:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: Fix BIP (AES-CMAC) cipher validation This cipher can be used only as a group management frame cipher and as such, there is no point in validating that it is not used with non-zero key-index. Instead, verify that it is not used as a pairwise cipher regardless of the key index.
